I made this thread for a coupple of reasons, one of which is that this is not TL, this is TH, another that I don't see why I shouldn't make a thread dedicated to one player, it is easy to see and also a place where people can discuss what they have seen on the stream.

I have to agree with Vestras on some level. You wont have time to update this everytime he streams while the streamlist on Teamliquid automatically does that. Why would anyone read this thread to see if he's streaming when the info is most likely outdated while they could just type in teamliquid.com(without navigating to a specific thread) and see if he's streaming or not.

well this calls for a "omfg"

First of all read the description again, notice the edit.

Further more proof that someone did benefit from this also you can see when this was posted.

Funny, how you don't contribute one bit to any of the sub forms of TH.net and yet you seem to question most of the initiatives I start. Why don't you try to contribute and see how good you do ? ;]

One last thing, with your train of thoughts there shouldn't be any SCII forums, because why, since blizzard already made theirs, right ? Your logic is as valid as a knife in a gunfight.

I missed the edit and I agree that it makes the thread somewhat more useful.

The link of your "proof" that someone profited from it is another case. You posted a thread to discuss an event(TLO's 24h streaming which I have no problem with you posting since it makes people aware of the event) this lead to Accname watching his stream after which he thanked you with appreciation because it made him check out the stream.

Let's say someone else made this thread before you. Take me for example. I am not perfect, I have school and a social life(as I know you have as well) so the thread is not always correct. Since you're very impressed by White-Ra, you obviously like to see when he streams.

The question is, to get to know when he streams, would you type in teamliquid.net and just look in the bar to the right or would you type in thehelper.net, go to the starcraft II forums, go into my thread and watch the status there(which MIGHT be wrong as well)

And yes, you are correct. I do not contribute much. You contribute more than I do, many of the things you post are actually useful and informing. I just don't think this is one of them. I don't contribute because I don't really see the point atm. Thehelper's Starcraft 2 community can almost be counted on your 10 fingers.

For the record, the reason I am criticizing your posts specifically is nothing personal. It's just that they're the easiest to argue against, and yes. I do like to argue. It's one of my many entertainments in life.

And I don't propose that there should be no Starcraft II forums except for Blizzard's own. I am just saying that this thread doesn't fill a purpose(well if you disregard the edit and even if you don't, it's still kind of little reason to start a thread)

Also, if you want me to contribute, I could start some threads on my own.

Example 1: "Thorzain - the Swedish Viking

I am extremely impressed by ThorZain's recent play. I just wish he would use Thor's more because that fits so well with his name. Oh, and it'd be awesome if he streamed, I'd love to see him stream regularly. Discuss what you think about Thorzain."

This would get about 3 replies because that's about how many people on this forum knows who Thorzain is. Personally, I don't care what 3 people think about Thorzain. Well, not enough to take the time to make a post about it.

When you post a thread, you do it for a reason. There's two parts to your thread.

1. Help people by informing them when White-Ra is streaming. People who are interested can just save time and go to teamliquid and I mentioned earlier.
2. Discuss White-Ra as a player. I don't know what kind of responses you want but apparently those future responses was worth your time to post the thread.

Final note: Also yes. My logic is as valid as Chuck Norris wielding a knife in a gunfight.

    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
